Well according to the PSU calculator a 540 Watt PSU is what you need.

I would check out the prices of these PSUs.

I would try to check prices, but I don't know good European computer sites.

Just what I think about that link, it is a refurbished psu and to I would avoid it, but that is just me.

Get something more reliable and efficient. Especially for [email protected] Even if you have to find a few more quid to pony up.

I would re-calculate the PSU again because I didn't know some of the specifics, so you may actually need more.

says 480w so i will look for 550w to be safe thanks

edit 550 selected wrong cpu so will get a 650w

Only having a budget of 20-25 quid to power that rig is something I wouldn't even remotely consider in a million years. And the PSU you linked is probably really only around 300W, if that, and most certainly with a horrible efficiency. I'd be very surprised if it lasted for any period of time when folding which never lets the components rest.

I would really start saving some money and buy a quality PSU that you could keep for a coming build. Doesn't have to be 80+ Gold or anything but these days there really is no reason to buy a PSU that's not rated by the 80+ org.

Noodles and oatmeal for a few months man, I know it can be tight with money but wanna risk my main computer to save a couple of quid.

You need to add a fire extinguisher into your budget.
